Plain-English summary
This collection of articles summarizes six presentations from a veterinary conference held in New Orleans in August 2003. The talks focused on new methods using molecular tools to identify and diagnose specific types of parasites, particularly certain worms and single-celled organisms. The goal was to improve understanding of these parasites and their genetic makeup. While this information is more technical and aimed at researchers, it highlights ongoing efforts to enhance diagnosis and treatment of parasitic infections in animals.
Abstract
This collection of articles provides an account of six presentations delivered at the 19th International Conference of the World Association for the Advancement of Veterinary Parasitology(WAAVP) (held in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA, from 10 to 14 August 2003) in a symposium session on Molecular Systematics and Diagnosis, organised and chaired by R.B. Gasser and D.S. Zarlenga. The focus was on recent advances in molecular tools for specific and genotypic identification,diagnosis, systematics and population genetics, with special emphasis on investigations of parasitic nematodes and protists.
